...and I know we really need to keep looking at the Democratic “cave” by the “surrender caucus” on the deal to end the shutdown...I thought this was a pretty clear-eyed analysis by Brian Tyler Cohen of what just took place; yes, it does indeed suck that the eight senators in the “coward caucus” caved on the ACA credits (and again, I have zero faith that the Repug-led Senate will even vote on those credits next month, let alone the outcome of that vote which is a foregone conclusion...and “MAGA Mike” Johnson wouldn’t even allow a vote in the House on the credits anyway), but funding SNAP and forcing Johnson to open up the House again (where he has no excuse any more to punt on swearing in Adelita Grijalva, meaning that the discharge petition on the Epstein files will go forward) are “silver linings” for sure...”if we want to purge our weak branding, we have to purge weak Democrats” indeed...great point by Cohen about not disengaging, since that never accomplishes anything positive (clip ends at about 6:49...and oh yeah, there is also this)...
...and Kyle Kulinski brings us the Dickensian tale of billionaires feasting while Americans starve from SNAP cuts...and of course, the High Court of Hangin’ Judge JR is just as culpable on making the hunger problem in this country worse because they granted that order allowing the Gropenfuhrer to get out of fully funding SNAP during the shutdown (the disgusting SCOTUS “shadow docket” strikes again)...oh, and our criminal regime also isn’t funding food banks as they are mandated to do, and as Kyle says, Pumpkin Pol Pot is also telling blue states to let people go hungry, while we fork over waaay too much damn money to that Trumpist idiot in Argentina...a related item on the economy is here (incredibly NSFW/H, but apropos IMO)...
...and Farron Cousins informs us that a federal judge just ruled that that our Tangerine Toddler and former Fix Noise personality Sean Duffy can’t withhold transportation funds from states like CA because these states weren’t helping the jackbooted thugs of ICE and their raids on people of another skin color; there’s absolutely NO STATUTE ANYWHERE that says that states must comply with the ICE garbage for transportation funding, and Duffy CANNOT arbitrarily withhold monies due to these states for that reason...
...and concerning the Dollemore clip, I thought this was an appropriate response from Mr. Newberger (very slightly NSFW/H)...
...and on this day in 1965, The Beatles completed “Rubber Soul,” including this tune.
